U.S. President Donald Trump's former national security adviser Michael Flynn to be sentenced on Dec. 18

WASHINGTON, Sept 19 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI,
will be sentenced on Dec. 18, according to a court filing on Wednesday.

Flynn pleaded guilty in December 2017 to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia, in exchange for cooperating with Special Counsel Robert Mueller's probe into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

A joint filing at U.S. District Court in Washington on Monday by Flynn's lawyers and prosecutors had said Flynn could be sentenced as soon as Nov. 28.

Prosecutors have repeatedly deferred Flynn's sentencing date since his guilty plea, even though Flynn's lawyer Robert Kelner said at a July hearing his client was eager to get the sentencing date on the calendar and put the ordeal behind him.

A sentencing date signals that Flynn's ongoing cooperation with Mueller's office is coming to an end.
Flynn was the first member of Trump’s administration to plead guilty to a crime uncovered by Mueller’s wide-ranging investigation into Russian attempts to influence the 2016 U.S. election and potential collusion by Trump aides.

Under a plea bargain deal, Flynn admitted in a Washington court that he lied when asked by FBI investigators about his conversations with Russia’s then-ambassador, Sergei Kislyak, just weeks before Trump took office.

Trump has denied knowing anything about contact with Russians and his campaign and has called Mueller's probe a witch hunt. Russia has denied U.S. allegations that it interfered in the campaign

  Just in, a Video of Pere before he ever dreamt of joining the Big Brother house was found online where he was asked in an interview where he was asked what character he will love to play in a movie, super hero or villain and Pere out rightly chose to play the Villain. Your guess is as good as mine! A Villain is someone who opposes a hero, he is a criminal and one blamed for a particular evil or difficulty, another word for a Villain is a traitor, a creep, wrongdoer.
